    Just saw on PSA you can piece together an entry level AR-10 for $460.... The market has fallen through the floor and is now traveling through the basement .

    Today I ran 130 rounds through the MP5. I LOVE IT!
    Fast, smooth, soft, and it just makes you feel good to run.
    So I filed the MP5 SBR stamp this evening through SilencerCo. TOO EASY!!!
    And I discovered that the Germans in all their wisdom, thread the VP9 Tactical in 13xDUMB LH. Because we suck and HK hates us. HAHA!

    Did the NRA Chief Range Safety Officer course today and doing the rifle instructor course tomorrow. Also sat in and audited the RSO course and will audit the pistol instructor course tomorrow since I'm already RSO and pistol certified.

    Im thinking about taking the NRA Range Safety Officer course. How is it?

    Oh okay I'm really like the sig mpx seen the one at ridge and wish I had the money for it.
    I really like the MPX. I had one a while back, a pistol version.
    I debated HARD on whether to go MPX Carbine. No stamp, familiar controls.
    However, at the end of the day it's another AR :yawn: and I really want nothing to do with the new sig fan thing. They're just trying too hard anymore.
    Plus, I've never had an MP5 and I've wanted one for a long time. And it's just too cool. At least to me. Lol

    I think I may go CZ Scorpion for my 9mm sbr... it'll be a while though.

    See if he'll take a 226 and bolt action in trade. Haha!

    Today I received a free light mount from Surefire. I bought the light used and it didn't come with the P mount, only U. So Surefire sent one free under warranty.
    I would've happily paid for it, but I appreciate the gesture. Good stuff.

    It's a pretty easy course, but has some great information in it. If you are already an NRA instructor they have an online course you can do which is what I did. The CRSO is a little more in depth, but still not rocket science it has to be taught by a training counselor, the RSO course can be taught by either an TC or a CRSO.

    Put 350rds thru my Glock using my rmr for the first time and love it. Rented an mpx as well $5 and can swap to whatever gun you want just buy their ammo. It was not bad hard to get a feel for something like that I feel indoors.

    I've dryfired an MPX and really liked it, but I hated that PDW style stock. I heard that getting the adapter and a more normal style of stock is another $3-400.

    Update on the Velocity trigger issue. Mine does have both set screws installed on either side, but they were all loose. I cinched down the bottom screws, then added a tiny dab of blue loctite on the top screws. I'm going to put it through it's paces next weekend (or maybe tomorrow, if the weather works out) to see how well it holds up.

    Yeah I kept wanting a cheek weld....granted it barely has any kick. I do like that it's all metal and the quality is there. Few hundred more vs a polymer....

    You'd make up most of that selling the PDW stock, which is mainly for looks IMO anyway.
    Try PCC Brant, you'll like it.
